OverviewClimate change is a serious problem that affects people of all walks of life, whether or not they accept the reality of it. The shifting weather patterns have a profound effect on the well-being of various animal species and on the viability of human communities, especially those located near large bodies of water.

Is it too late to create a sustainable future, or can the people of Earth work together to prevent future disaster?
